South Tacoma neighborhood

Ending homelessness requires all of us – dedicated community members, City of Tacoma staff, and elected officials – working together to address both the short- and long-term needs our neighbors face. From diversifying shelter options to building more affordable housing, we can address the complex issues of homelessness through collective planning and action.

Our vision is to sustain an equitable, dignified, and culturally responsive homeless and housing response system that quickly and effectively addresses everyone’s homeless crisis while supporting the needs of residents and local businesses.
